I learned to write in cursive style as an 8-year-old in school.
According to Wikipedia "Cursive has been in decline throughout the 21st century due to its perceived lack of necessity." Some years ago, a teacher's union called cursive a "dying art." Other consider cursive too tedious to learn and question its usefulness because of the widespread usage of computers and the teaching of "keyboard proficiency" instead of cursive.
Yes. I learned it at a very young age, it was the norm as I was growing up, and I was often complimented by others for how legible they found my handwriting. My mother’s cursive writing is practically unreadable, and has been that way since I first tried to decipher it.

I’ve never actively made my mother do anything, nor have I tried!
